SUNNY'S SAMBAL AND PINEAPPLE-GLAZED BACON
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Mix together the brown sugar, pineapple, sambal and a nice pinch of salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the bacon strips on top; sprinkle with pepper. Bake until most of the fat is rendered, 8 to 10 minutes. Use paper towels to blot as much excess fat as possible.
- Put a wire rack on a baking sheet and lay the bacon on top. Brush the glaze over the bacon. Bake until the pineapple bits are golden brown and the bacon is crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
SUNNY'S EASY GRILLED CABBAGE "STEAKS" WITH APPLE SALAD
Steps:
- Make the sauce. Stir together the hot pepper jelly, orange juice, vinegar, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl or liquid measure. Stir and set aside.
- Grill the cabbage. Preheat the grill to 350 degrees F.
- Brush both sides of the cabbage with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the slices over the direct heat of the grill and cook until the bottom is slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Flip the cabbage and brush with the pepper jelly sauce. Cook for another 4 to 5 minutes and remove to serving plates.
- Top with the salad. Combine the apples, tomatoes, scallions, lemon juice and a drizzle of the sauce in a medium bowl (make it as saucy as you like). Toss to coat and place an equal amount of the salad on the center of each grilled cabbage slice. Top with a few basil leaves. Eat it!

Steps:
- For the brine: Add the salt, sugar and 1 cup warm water to a medium bowl. Whisk until the granules dissolve. Add the turkey, then transfer everything to a resealable plastic bag and refrigerate for 8 hours or up to overnight.
- For the coating: Add the mustard, mayonnaise, honey and thyme to a small bowl. Stir to combine.
- Remove the turkey from the brine, then pat dry and let rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Slather half the coating over the top side of each breast. To wrap the turkey, lay 6 slices of bacon parallel to each other, overlapping slightly, on a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Place a turkey breast, coated-side down, in the middle of the strips, oriented perpendicularly to the bacon. Cover the bottom of the turkey with more coating. Use the parchment or plastic wrap to lift all of the bacon over and around the breast, overlapping the ends. Roll over and release from the parchment, then place on a baking sheet outfitted with a wire rack, bacon-seam-side down. Sprinkle generously with black pepper. Repeat with the remaining bacon and turkey breast.
- Roast the turkey until a meat thermometer reads about 160 degrees F, about 1 hour. Remove and cover lightly with aluminum foil. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then carve into 1-inch slices.

Time 1h30m
Yield 6 to 8 servings
Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick aluminum foil. Take each strip of bacon and twist it along the length being careful to not stretch, just twist. Place the twisted strip on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the rest, nestling them close together on the baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, add the brown sugar, thyme, dry mustard, paprika, garlic powder and plenty of black pepper. Mix with a fork until combined.
- Sprinkle the sugar mixture all over the bacon. Bake for about 40 minutes. The twists will be slightly flimsy. Let the bacon cool on the baking sheet for 30 minutes, loosening every 10 minutes so they don't stick to the baking sheet. They will firm up once cooled down.
